Famous quotes containing the word science:

    “Science is analytical, descriptive, informative. Man does not live by bread alone, but by science he attempts to do so. Hence the deadliness of all that is purely scientific.”
    —Eric Gill (1882–1940)

    “When science drove the gods out of nature, they took refuge in poetry and the porticos of civic buildings.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
